Lately I've been in my head
Thinking of those up and down the streets
And I find myself longing for that wind
That catches you off guard
And makes you feel brand new
I'll go back to California
You'll lead me back where I'll be stronger
I know I'll find it in California
I'll make my way out to you
Lately I don't feel the same
As who I thought I used to be
Funny how that changes overnight
And all it takes is one call
And then you're not fine
I'll go back to California
You'll lead me back where I'll be stronger
I know I'll find it in California
I'll make my way out to you
Cause I keep trying
To start over, to get closer
And time flies by
But I feel it on my own
So I never really know
I'll go back to California
You'll lead me back where I'll be stronger
I know I'll find it in California
I'll make my way out to you
I'll go back to California
You'll lead me back where I'll be stronger
I know I'll find it in California
I'll make my way out to you
